Abstract
â¶ Relative Light Germination (RLG) differed among taxa. â¶ RLG was lower for seeds from taller than for shorter taxa, and lower for taxa with heavier seeds than for taxa with lighter seeds. â¶ Dispersal syndrome groups varied with RLG. â¶ RLG did not differ between cylindrical and globose taxa. â¶ Small-seeded species had a light requirement to germinate more often than large-seeded species.
